GO BEARS!
Watching via AFN Network in Wiesbaden, Germany, 2AM local start time.
Gold tops/blue pants are used for almost all primetime games.

I can closer to my tv screen now that
Lou Holtz is off…..always concerned with the spit flying when he talks…..and sounds more and more like Mortimer Snerd too.
alaska A residing in colorado.
I love it
“Last game of the season, I don’t care what happens to my body” (or something to that effect)
Danzig and I start up the train most of the time. And people ask for streams.

Ouch... that last play
he might not get sacked on that play but that was a really risky throw. Had a bad feeling of a pick six.
GO CAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NICE!

Not that it mattered, but where was the horse collar?

That is some crazy coverage breakdown
That was just a straight wide receiver streak. No way it should go to the house from that distance.
That replay sure looks like he was down

I still think they can overturn based on that angle.
Doesn’t matter… it means we can pad Jahvid’s stats.
Agreed
He would have to stretch his arms 6 feet from where his knee was down at first

My question is why do so many coaches challenge a TD like that when it would only put the ball at the 1 or 2 anyway
Risking a time-out. More often then not, the offense is going to punch it in when they have 1st and goal from the 2. But if a call doesn’t get overturned and the team loses the time out, that could cost them points at the end of the half

Good 3 and out for Cal

and a bad punt by Miami
we start in Miami’s territory!
Reggie Bush anyone? WOW!

And the $100,000 a year salary in college

Jahvid needs 1 more TD to tie Blount for the Pac10 TD title...
He needs two more for 17 TDs… which would make him the leader
Doesn't that only count for in-season?
If I’m not mistaken… Same for the rushing title and any other statistic

I don't think so
Because there was talks about if Quizz could re-take the rushing title in the Sun Bowl (before knowing he was out), and it was researched and found that Best had won the rushing title in the Washington game

Yeah, Best will get his 2 TDs I'm guessing

Blount still has a game left. Something tells me he’s not getting there.
by BearsNecessity on Dec 27, 2008 5:41 PM PST up reply actions
He will be in the pre-season talks
A better bowl game for Cal would have helped

True but, How can you ignore it though. 8 yds a carry. He is our whole offense.
by GoldenBear421 on Dec 27, 2008 5:45 PM PST up reply actions
You can't
But there’s a lot of East Coasters not watching this game. Everyone will be watching the Holiday Bowl

Another 3 and out-- defense looks as good as it has all season
I support Takimoto in his effort to support Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.
It will definitely help with the Bay Area kids watching this game right now
Especially those on the fence between Stanford and Cal

Longshore and Smart Play in the same sentence?
Never though it would happen
I support Takimoto in his effort to support Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.
He plays great with a 14 point lead. Most players do.

There's the Nate the Pac10 loves

Two words: Ja Quizz
